‘By the way, I think that the more she lies, the bigger her cross gets,’ Daily Show host says of White House spokeswoman

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt was seen without her cross necklace following the mockery of Daily Show host Jon Stewart.

Leavitt appeared for her briefing on Tuesday in a navy blazer, but she had chosen to forego her signature jewelry.

On Monday night, Stewart skewered Leavitt, saying, “By the way, I think that the more she lies, the bigger her cross gets. Is that possible? It’s like some sort of weird Pinocchio cross.”

The host also noted that Leavitt is likely to be “the only one” who will be able to leave the administration “unscathed … Because I don’t think that she has any principles in there left to die.”

    I want the unimaginable amount of harm Bimbo-Goebbeles is doing to be called out. She’s not just lying, she’s actively normalized institutional gaslighting, basically setting up the premise necessary for the public to have just enough doubt about the veracity of the horrific stuff they’ll hear about that it empowers the fascists to move on to more and more horrible deeds… Holy smokes this bunch is dangerous

    So when it came down to a choice between her faith and Trump, she ditched her faith. Yeah, that checks.

      I grew up with people like this. The cross is purely for virtue signalling. It has no real value to them other than being like a Costco membership card to get access to manipulate people who are easily manipulated by such things.
